Lesson 20

I am determined to see. ~ Lesson 20, ACIM

The first time I touched a course in miracles, this was as far as I got for weeks.

I choked.

Got into all the thinking. All the storytelling. Oy.

So simple though, it was actually a super simple declaration.

One that absolutely changed everything.

From the moment I fully took in this lesson, I can see how I oriented my entire life around this idea.

I was asking for the truth to be revealed.

To pull back the curtain on absolutely everything.

With zero concept of what I was asking for.

Or what it would activate within.

One of my absolute favorites.

My teacher of that time reminded us every time we met - “you just gotta be willing to be willing.”

She was right.

The willingness to consider something diametrically opposed to everything I soaked in up to that point.

The willingness to drop everything I thought made me me.

Accepting that invitation was the bravest and most liberating choice of this incarnation to date.
